The Brits Are a Different Lot!


Item One:
TAXPAYERS are footing the bill for a translator because an asylum seeker elected as a councillor struggles to speak English.

Liaqat Ali scored a stunning victory for the Liberal Democrats in Manchester's Longsight ward last month in a backlash against the war on Iraq.

Now it has emerged he speaks only broken English and needed an interpreter to sit with him at his first full council meeting...

Sajjad Hussain, the Labour councillor unseated by Mr Ali, said: "It is ridiculous. He is not able to do his job because he can't read, write or speak English. Council papers are in English and discussion is in English.

Item Two:

SHOPPING mall bosses have relented in a rent row with an African art and crafts shop after they were threatened with a spell from a naked witch doctor.

Bosses at the Trafford Centre agreed to release the shop, Masai Mara, from its lease as they were about to be bewitched.

Arrangements had been made to fly the Kenyan tribesman into Manchester so he could carry out his spell at the shopping mall on Saturday.
